In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of OpenWrt on OpenBSD. OpenWrt is an open-source operating system often used for routers and other embedded devices. OpenBSD, on the other hand, is a free and secure Unix-like operating system. By combining the two, you can create a powerful and secure network.
Go to the OpenWrt website and download the latest stable release. Choose the appropriate architecture for your router or embedded device.
Create an installation media, USB or CD-R, using the downloaded OpenWrt image.
Insert the installation media into the router or embedded device.
Next, you will need to boot into the installation media. Depending on your device, you may need to change the boot order in the BIOS settings to prioritize the installation media over the current operating system.
Follow the steps of the installation process to install OpenWrt on the router. During the installation process, you will be prompted to configure the basic network settings such as IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
Once the installation is complete, remove the installation media and reboot the router or embedded device.
Open your browser and type "192.168.1.1" or "192.168.0.1" into the address bar. This should take you to the OpenWrt interface. Here, you can configure the advanced network settings and customize the system to your needs.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install OpenWrt on OpenBSD. With this powerful combination, you can create a secure and customizable network.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
